I need some hair product advice please!

My hair is fairly straight and fine but quite end-y. Does anyone know what styling product I can use please?

I've tried
blow drying using a downward angled nozzle (not easy)
using straighteners (doesn't seem to work)
wax (tiny bit when dry to stick it down)
vaseline 😬

Thanks!

Mine's the same, I'd love a solution too!

I have fine hair with flyaways and can get frizzy too.

I use this.

After washing my hair, I spray this on, enough to coat the hair, then blow dry. The heat and tension activates it. It only needs done every 3/4 washes so doesn't work out too expensive.
It was made a big difference 😊

@Gottleogear When you say 'enough to coat the hair', how much do you apply? I have some of this but it doesn't make any real difference for me.

I found an "ionic" hairdryer makes a massive difference. I bought one unknowingly and it dries my hair really so it looks really smooth now.

@SwordBilledHummingbird
I literally put loads on. I hadn't been using enough of it and was told to virtually saturate the hair. This has made a big difference now.

I watched people do it on tiktok and copied, my hair is soaking wet with the stuff! More is more approach.

OP I would recommend 2 things:- before blow drying: https://www.philipkingsley.co.uk/bond-builder-split-end-remedy.html?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADotuP-fYhNaIpPo3sqwFUbol6zb and https://uk.olaplex.com/products/olaplex-n-6-bond-smoother-uk?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=21620780354&utm_content=&utm_term=719628367360&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADI50hLr5a1updCSwivDOO37K54-0 after blow drying.

I do love colour wow though, I’d probably use that the wash after using the PK and alternate

dyson has a special attachment for flyaways - it works.
